For both?

Here's a good one I heard somebody say in Chemistry. This was before I started this topic and I just remembered. Keep in mind, she was serious and this idea of stupid questions was never brought up in the class.

We were working on our homework and we had to remember the seven diatomic elements. We showed her that you start with nitrogen and make a seven down to iodine, and then add in Hydrogen. She asked why not have Hydrogen be next to the others and we had to explain that they were organized by weight. Here is her question.

"Well, why can't they just make Hydrogen heavier?"

lol. Ok. Here's a list of things that I've always wondered about:

-If that which goes up must come down, then wouldn't it also be true that that which comes down must go up?

-Why is software called software? It isn't hard, but it isn't soft either.

-Why is it that you "ride" a horse and "drive" a car, couldn't the oppisites also be true?

-Why do people like gold?

-Do two normal people make one paranormal?

-When somebody tells me to restrain myself, does that me I have to strain twice?

-If you hire two lawyers, does that mean that both lawyers could be replaced by one paralegal?

-If "having a lot of money" makes you rich, then doesn't that mean that a banker would be rich?

-If the statement that what we are all really looking for is the meaning of life is true, then why do so many people watch tv?

-If dogs are man's best friend, why do we keep them on a leash?

-If there is other life in the universe, doesn't that make us aliens?

-Why are ants so groupy? If I were an ant I'd say " -- you guys, I'm goin' it alone."

-Why is a bald eagle called a bald eagle?

-Why weren't computer chips called crackers?

-In England, why are underwear called "knockers"?

-Why is being called an ass (donkey) taken as offencive? They're useful!
